National Dam Safety Program. Lac Benet Dam (MO 30281), Mississippi - Kaskaskia - St. Louis Basin, St. Francois County, Missouri. Phase I Inspection Report
Lac Benet Dam was inspected. The purpose of the inspection was to make an assessment of the general conditions of the dam with respect to safety, based upon available data and visual inspection, in order to determine if the dam poses hazards to human life or property. In accordance with the guidelines and based on visual observation, the dam is classified as having a high hazard potential. Failure would threaten life and property. The estimated damage zone extends approximately one mile downstream of the dam. Within the damage zone are three dwellings and a lake and dam. Our inspection and evaluation indicates that the spillway does not meet criteria set forth in the recommended guidelines for a small dam having a high hazard potential. Considering the small volume of water impounded and the downstream channel from the dam, one half of the Probable Maximum Flood is the appropriate spillway design flood. The spillway will pass the 100-year flood (1% probability flood - a flood having a one percent chance of being exceeded in any one year) without overtopping the dam. The spillway will pass 25% of the Probable Maximum Flood without overtopping the dam. The Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) is defined as the flood that may be expected from the most severe combination of critical meteorologic and hydrologic conditions that are reasonably possible in the region.
